CREA Updates and Extends Resale Housing Forecast

From CREA.ca :: The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) has updated its forecast for home sales activity via the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) Systems of Canadian real estate Boards and Associations in 2014, and extended the outlook to 2015.

National resale housing activity has started 2014 at lower levels, compared to previous years. This in part reflects payback for stronger levels of activity recorded last summer and fall when buyers with pre-approved mortgage financing advanced home purchases before their lower pre-approved rates expired. It also likely reflects the deferral of some activity due to what has been an exceptionally tough winter in many parts of the country.

This House is why you NEVER judge a book by its cover

Looking at the outside of this home in Middlesex, England you would say it looks like your average semi-detached home, good size, even has a really great yard. It looks...ordinary. Normal. Traditional even. You might even be willing to pay its asking price...but that is exactly why you never judge a book by its cover. This home's exterior gives no hint to what lies within...

But then you walk through the front door...and it hits you. PURPLE. EVERYWHERE.
